Matthew 4

¹Then was Iesus led aside of the Spirit into the wildernes, to be tempted of the deuil.

²And when he had fasted fourtie dayes, and fourtie nights, he was afterward hungrie.

³Then came to him the tempter, and said, If thou be the Sonne of God, commande that these stones be made bread.

⁴But he answering said, It is written, Man shall not liue by bread onely, but by euery worde that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.

⁵Then the deuil tooke him vp into the holy Citie, and set him on a pinacle of the temple,

⁶And said vnto him, If thou be the Sonne of God, cast thy selfe downe: for it is written, that he wil giue his Angels charge ouer thee, and with their hands they shall lift thee vp, lest at any time thou shouldest dash thy foote against a stone.

⁷Iesus saide vnto him, It is written againe, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.

⁸Againe the deuil tooke him vp into an exceeding hie mountaine, and shewed him all the kingdomes of the world, and the glory of them,

⁹And sayd to him, All these will I giue thee, if thou wilt fall downe, and worship me.

¹⁰Then sayd Iesus vnto him, Auoyde Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him onely shalt thou serue.

¹¹Then the deuill left him: and beholde, the Angels came, and ministred vnto him.

¹²And when Iesus had heard that Iohn was committed to prison, he returned into Galile.

And leauing Nazareth, went and dwelt in Capernaum, which is neere the sea in the borders of Zabulon and Nephthalim,
